I'm impressed. The Albion have buy in from us all at different levels but that is the creme de la creme of super fandom.

Was the match in Aug 76 v Liverpool in the League Cup?

It was my first full season of supporting Albion and I recall going to a very early season game when we beat Norwich 2-0 in the scorching sun.

You didn't go to any last season so you are obviously telling lies.

Tongue Congrats mate. That's some going.

Well done! That puts you up there with being one of the infamous 1,106.

Liverpool was the first league match, lost 1-0 (29,375). The first home game of the season was Notts County (6,936) in the Anglo Scottish Tournament. Liverpool in the League Cup Replay was the 6th September, won 1-0 (22,662. We did beat Norwich 2-0 (16,434). The biggest crowd of the season was against Vile, 1-1 (41,867)

Yes Midge. Autoglass, Zenith Data Systems, Anglo Italian et al. It doesn't include friendlies and testimonials though because I was locked out of Gary Robson's testimonial in May 1996, when the ground was being redeveloped; so had to deduct those 60 odd matches off! Sad

Haven't done all the aways and wasn't one of the 1,106. Missed Bournemouth & Blackburn early this season when I refused to pay £30+ for a match ticket then realised the majority were £30+. Was amongst the 800 at Middlesbrough though and similar small following at Cardiff. Went to Denmark (pre-season tour) for my honeymoon (wife came too). She since drowned in a wishing well after I threw 20p in and made a wish. The fire brigade got my 20p back when they retrieved her body. So every cloud
